73’
Goals from Ciaran Clark, Federico Fernandez and Jonjo Shelvey earned Newcastle United a third win of the season as they beat West Ham United 3-2.
Newcastle took the lead after 16 minutes, Joelinton heading Shelvey’s free-kick across goal for Clark to nod in.
Fernandez doubled the lead six minutes later, heading in from Jetro Willems’ deep cross.
The lively Allan Saint-Maximin was twice denied by West Ham goalkeeper Roberto Jimenez as the visitors dominated the first half.
And it was 3-0 just six minutes after the break, with Roberto unable to keep out Shelvey’s low free-kick.
Fabian Balbuena tapped in from close range to halve the deficit on 73 minutes before Robert Snodgrass made it 3-2 with a well-struck volley.
But Newcastle held on to rise to 15th place with 12 points. West Ham drop to 12th, a point ahead of Newcastle.
